It looks like they never had the option now - from the brochures I have found, - all reference is for the Driver and the wiring is different for each seat - as I've said the driver's seat controls the passenger one so you can't have 2 master seats with the same control ECUS - there will be conflict.

It's probably not something I can be bothered doing James. I'm more hopeful that the wiring and lumbar cushion is present but not wired. I'm even more hopeful that a mobile office cushion will do. I believe there are inflatables now that can be adjusted to suit.

Sometimes the change doesn't work.

I think that will be your best bet Rick - as cost cutting will probably mean the lumbar motors aren't there - consider that the driver's seat can be loaded with AFIL vibrators left and right, heated pads, multiple rollers and sensors, plus the lumber motors designed to double as the massage function.

I've just found from my dealer on another issue that they stopped producing the rear brake disc dust guards on many models now as part of 'trimming'. He said all of them literally start crumbling sooner or later and they now just pull them off which isn't difficult! So I won't be replacing mine that are also falling to bits at £40 a pop!

That link from Sticky is probably a cheaper instant solution!
